Document Library saving link instead of the whole file

Hi,
I was just playing around with the document library v0.92 for application express. The application stores the whole information of the doc inside the database.
If I wanted to just save the name of the file and the link of the file in the database, and the actually file is stored in windows file directory, how would i do that?
Was playing around with the application builder but not quite sure how I can do it.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
the file you want to access must be reachable from the database or from the application server.
A file stored somewhere on c:\user_directory\... will not be accessible by either of them.
Regards,
Daniel

Is it possible to use NUMCHARS to display the number of characters in a block of text instead of the whole document? How?

Is it possible to use NUMCHARS to display the number of characters in a block of text instead of the whole document? How?

Getting the character count for a paragraph is trivial:
Sub NumChars1()
MsgBox Selection.Paragraphs(1).Range.Characters.Count
End Sub
Even outputting it to the document is trivial:
Sub NumChars2()
With Selection.Paragraphs(1)
.Range.InsertAfter .Range.Characters.Count
End With
End Sub
The real issue comes when you want to update the document. If the destination paragraph is only ever empty or contains the character count of the previous paragraph, you could use:
Sub NumChars3()
With Selection.Paragraphs(1)
.Next.Range.Text = .Range.Characters.Count & vbCr
End With
End Sub

When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?

When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?

As seen in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macword/has-the-word- 2011-for-mac-invisible-toolbars/018a3ab6-0570-4ad5-abf8-5b6427fdde3e?msgId=e111b f0a-0e32-4fa3-9536-f349dad8439d
and it worked for me:
1. Quit Word
2. In the Finder's menu bar, select Go > Go to folder and type or paste: ~/Library/Preferences/
3. Click on Go
4. Locate the preference file com.microsoft.Word.plist, then Option-drag it to the desktop to create a backup copy
5. Go to Applications/Utilities and open Terminal
6. Paste the following bold command at the $ prompt (it's a single line):
defaults write com.microsoft.Word 14\\Toolbars\\Show_HIToolbar -boolean TRUE
7. Press Return and then quit with Command Q
8. Start Word and test. If the fix works, trash the backup file in the Desktop file. Otherwise, restore it.
In the original source the author also mentions the change in Word 2008

Adobe Reader 11.0.09 on MAC prints PDFs 1/6 of page 6 times on page, instead of the whole page. Help please!!

I am using Mac OS X 10.9.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.09 and it prints PDFs 1/6 of page 6 times on page, instead of the whole page. I have tried Print as Image, no joy. Multiple pages is NOT selected. I cannot get anyone from Adobe to help me with this problem and it is becoming a major impediment to my work!

Hi Suzbat,
If you try to print any other document from any other application. Did you check, are you facing the same issue or not?
Have you tried to install latest drivers of the printer.

1. WHen you delete the file from Sharepoint, it is still present in Recycle bin. This is a default setting in sharepoint for 30 days. Once files are deleted fro Recycle bin, it can also be delete from RBS
2. There is a RBS cleanup job which deletes files from RBS. for more info check

I have many thousands of songs in my itunes library. Unfortunately, most are now pointing toward .jpgs instead of the m4a files in my itunes library. Is there anyway to fix this without reimporting all the files into itunes from scratch??

I have a document that I wrote today on my phone, went to open it again and the app kept crashing or it would only open half the file. Is anyone else having this issue? On the preview it shoes the whole file, but when I open it only shows a few paragraphs

Everything is up to date.

I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

I recently restored my ipad and backed it up. I was wondering if you could place back certain files only to your ipad instead of the whole backup.

Hello ggjsa,
Congratulations on your new laptop! I understand that you have copied your old iTunes Library to your new computer, but you are still not seeing the music. I recommend reviewing Part 5 in the section titled "External drive" in the following article:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
If you are still having trouble transferring the library using this method, you may want to try using the Home Sharing method in the article.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

How can I delete one message instead of the whole conversation

I would like to know a way to delete a single msg instead of the whole coversation, as my phone is pretty empty, space wise but few months down the line if my msgs are full i.e. 7500 and i want to keep some messages from the same conversation and delete few from them. Is it achievable and if not then is Apple introducing any updates that will fix this flaw as there are few applications out there which can solve this problem, but i am worried if it is going to void my warranty.
Thanks

This is not supported at the present time. I don't believe Apple has announced this will be included with a future update, but certainly possible this option is in the works.

You locate the file in the Finder(it's in the Documents item of the sidebar by default), drag it to the Trash, and empty the Trash.
